NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Prismark10 Small town Texas mechanic Earl Crest (Joshua Jackson) is a simple man living a simple life with his girlfriend Baby (Jaime King) who also became his stepsister after their parents married each other. Earl had witnessed his father being killed in a bar when he was a boy.Baby is a waitress who dreams of becoming an actress in LA and they have saved up to move there and hope to make it big.Events take a dark turn when his dim cousin Junior (DJ Qualls) and his slimy friend Tinker (Ryan Hurst) steal money from local mobsters and Earl gets roped in to save his cousin Junior. Things get confusing as Tinker is double crossing them and a rival set of gangsters are also after them.Lone Star State of Mind is a southern black comedy with a lot of clichés and a few inverted ones such as the tough gay friend. Unfortunately it has paper thin characters, too many stereotypes and wants to be a left field violent comedy like Raising Arizona. There is a tacked on ending but even that is predictable. Still its sporadically amusing and remains watchable.

cschultzy56 i personally loved this movie. i was introduced to this movie by my fiancé's parents who said it was one of the funniest movies they've ever seen and I'm inclined to agree with them. showed it to my parents who are late 50's early 60's and they both loved it. took it with me when i was stationed at camp Pendleton. showed it to a group of people some from rural areas, and some from cities outside of Texas. and the main thing i noticed is you have to understand this kind of humor to like this movie. the guys from rural areas and Texas all laughed cuz they either understood the joke or knew someone like the character's in the movie. and the other people were mad at me for making them sit through my favorite movie. in all honesty if you don't have a little back country blood in you you're probably not gonna like this movie. if you do i'll bet you'll love it.

bepper8975 This is the worst movie Joshua Jackson has ever been associated with. The budget must have been donated by the local Dairy Queen. Acting was really bad. Josh needs to stick to his normal accent. He did not even get close to pulling off Texas slang.I found myself laughing at the movie, not because of it. The title suggests a Lone Star State of Mind???? The characters besides wearing a cowboy hat did not represent Texas or the Texan state of mind on any level. The only thing good about this movie was Jaime King.The script was pointless and the acting stunk; don't waste your time with this loser.

Claudio Carvalho In the small town of Bennett, in Texas, the mechanic Earl Crest (Joshua Jackson) is a simple good man, who loves his stepsister Baby (Jaime King). She works as a waitress in a dining place, and aims to be an actress in Los Angeles, saving some money and planning to move with Earl to become a TV starlet. Earl's father was killed by a man, who promised to find Earl when he left jail, and Earl's mother married the father of Baby, who has been Earl's girlfriend since high-school. When the morons Junior (DJ Qualls) and Tinker (Ryan Hurst) steal the money and drugs by chance of a drug-dealer, Earl gets the robbery and keeps it in a locker, trying to save the retarded Junior from the possible wraith of the bandits, and gets involved in a confused situation, with two gangs trying to retrieve the money and the drugs. "Lone Star State of Mind" is a funny entertainment. There are many good jokes in the messed situations Earl gets involved to help his retardate relative. I liked this movie and laughed a lot. The beauty of Jaime King shines, and the cast is very hilarious. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Dinheiro e Má Companhia" ("Money and Bad Company")
